6. Attach the sealant filling hose (G) onto the tire valve
stem. Turn it clockwise until it is tight.
Make sure the sealant and compressor kit on/off
switch (D) is in the O (off) position.
7. Remove the air compressor accessory plug (C)
from the unit.
8. Plug the air compressor accessory plug (C) into
an accessory power outlet in the vehicle. See

information.
Do not slam the door or close the window on the
air compressor accessory plug.
{CAUTION:
Idling the engine in a closed-in place or with
the climate control system off can cause
deadly carbon monoxide (CO). See Engine
Exhaust on page 2-47.
9. Start the vehicle. See Starting the Engine on
page 2-34 for more information. The vehicle must
be running while using the air compressor.
{CAUTION:
Inflating something too much can make it
explode, and you or others could be injured.
Be sure to read the inflator instructions, and
inflate the tire to its recommended pressure.
Do not exceed 36 psi (248 kPa).

The sealant and compressor kit will inject sealant
and air into the tire. Sealant may leak from the
puncture until the vehicle is driven and the hole has
sealed.
The pressure gage will initially show a high pressure
while the compressor pushes the sealant into the
tire. Once the sealant is completely dispersed
into the tire, the pressure will quickly drop and start
to rise again as the tire inflates with air.
